Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.
You have problem of more mucus secreation that may be because of intestinal infection like ulcerative colitis.
In irritable bowel syndrome more mucus secreation is present.
Abdominal ultra sonography is helpful for diagnose.
Colonoscopy is helpful for further diagnosis.
Consent a gastroenterologist for diagnosis.
I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
Take care.
